Edit!!! If the server is virtualized you should do a snapshot before the following steps!

You could try to kill the yum process.

kill yum

If it doesn’t work:

kill yum -9

After killing it you should do

yum-complete-transaction
yum clean all

because it can be leaved in an inconsistent state after killing.

After these steps you should try

yum update

from terminal.

-bash: kill: yum: arguments must be process or job IDs

sorry my fault. Try

pkill yum

or

killall yum

or get the id with:

ps -A | grep yum

so, i have run the command, all cleared, but now. the interface still has the running process unending

Event: nethserver-mysql-update

Did you kill the process?

7

even after reloading the page?

8

yap, have tried over and over again.

this is the second time after rebuild that it happens

maybe the process to kill is pkgaction? I don’t know

i just had to rebuild the server. ill monitor closely, if the issue persisit,s then ill install the apps one by one till i notice which one of the apps causes the problem in the first place
